Warrior Protection and Readiness Coalition Applauds Final Passage of the Homeland Procurement Reform (HOPR) Act
Wednesday, January 11th, 2023New Law Will Help Ensure Domestically Manufactured Uniforms and Equipment are provided to Department of Homeland Security Operational Personnel
MARBLEHEAD, Mass., Jan. 09, 2023 — The Warrior Protection and Readiness Coalition (WPRC) commends the inclusion of the “Homeland Procurement Reform Act” in the Fiscal Year 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, recently signed into law by President Joseph Biden. The HOPR Act is the culmination of several years of WPRC advocacy on behalf of the domestic industrial base and American companies that provide 100% made-in- America uniforms, footwear and protective equipment to the Federal government.
This critical, bi-partisan legislation ensures that the operational units within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) including Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), U.S. Secret Service, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) procure uniforms and equipment manufactured in the United States. Currently, many DHS agencies purchase uniforms and equipment manufactured in foreign countries that lack supply chain dependability and secure protocols for handling sensitive uniform items. The HOPR Act sets a new precedent to ensure that uniforms, footwear, body armor and equipment for DHS frontline personnel are built in the United States, supporting the industrial base and ensuring supply chain security.
On behalf of their 60+ member companies, the WPRC extends appreciation to primary sponsors Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Senator Mike Rounds (R-SD), Rep. Lou Correa (D-CA), and Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL) as well as co-sponsors Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Sen. Jerry Moran (R-KS), Rep. Chris Pappas (D-NH), and Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA). HOPR sponsors ensured that this critical legislation was maintained in the FY23 National Defense Authorization Act, and that DHS begins to move towards domestic sources of supply to meet current and future homeland security challenges.
The new law establishes specific criteria that increases the ability of DHS to obtain high-quality, American-made personal protective equipment (PPE) and organizational clothing and individual equipment (OCIE). The HOPR Act builds upon procurement laws such as the Berry Amendment and the Kissell Amendment by expanding opportunities for American manufacturers that meet specific, domestic manufacturing criteria.
WPRC Executive Director David Costello said, “Department of Homeland Security personnel as well as the American public owe a debt of gratitude to the members of Congress who have championed this important legislation. Thanks to their leadership, uniforms, armor, footwear and protective equipment needed by DHS personnel will be supplied by high-quality American sources, improving the quality and performance of this category of products while supporting American jobs. The WPRC looks forward to working with the DHS and the White House to encourage the rapid implementation of this domestic procurement policy.”

Wednesday, February 2nd, 2022The LEGEND® Compression Wear Tactical Boot Sock program is proudly “Made In USA”; in North Carolina; is Berry Amendment Compliant, and part of the SKILCRAFT® Program “Supporting Jobs for Blind Workers”.
During the program development process, soldiers and warfighters were interviewed, listened too, and participated in on going wear test evaluations! The focus from the beginning was to provide needed, durable, comfortable, compression boot socks. During the evaluation process modifications were made; until the final development samples, received consistent highly recommended evaluations. The evaluation process did not stop there and ongoing evaluations continue to be performed by soldiers, warfighters, fire, wild fire, emergency and rescue workers.
The LEGEND® Compression boot sock program is user, function based consisting of three core compression boot sock styles. The LEGEND® Compression Merino Wool All Weather, Compression Merino Wool Cold Weather and the LEGEND® Compression Warm Weather Superior Moisture Wicking Micro Channel, Hydrophilic Nylon boot socks. In extreme or varying cold conditions, two styles can be layered trapping warm air between the layers for greater insulation.
To better serve the needs of our growing customer base we sought after and have received The Department Of The Air Force Certification as No Melt No Drip (NMND) Flame Resistant (FR) Safe to Fly (StF) for the LEGEND® Compression Cold Weather Merino Wool Boot Sock. Having met the criteria for this Certification we are in a position to provide greater safety to our flight, shipboard, special duty, deployed, fire and rescue, defenders and rescue workers.
Features that make a difference! If your feet are comfortable you can better execute your duties each day, all day, day after day.
• Mild Graduated Compression helps improve blood flow, reduce foot fatigue, achy feet, and recovery time.
• Seamless toe design, added support, and dense terry cushioning to reduce friction, toe irritation, and to increase comfort.
• Wide Arch Support to minimize sock movement, blisters, and provide greater comfort.
• The Cold Weather boot socks use a high percentage content of moisture wicking, temperature regulating, breathable, antibacterial, and odor resistant Merino Wool. Legend uses an innovative engineered Spuncover™ process; wrapping our merino wool in nylon, that makes our socks, softer, more durable, with minimal shrinkage.
